These first few are Christmas ornaments that I knit for my brother and sister-in-law as Christmas presents a few years ago.
 |
| The "body" of this little guy is a wine cork I got from someone on Freecycle. Recycling at it's finest! |
 |
| Mini sock |
 |
| Itty bitty sweater! You'll notice that all the other ornaments are Hallmark. My SIL works part time at a Hallmark store. |
 |
| Troubbie the Wonder Cat Also, you can see a very *small* part of my yarn collection there on the left. |
 |
| My Christmas tree. Wasn't it pretty? |
 |
| We had Christmas crackers! Isn't it lovely how my paper hat matches my outfit? |
 |
| Dad had a hat, too, and he looks absolutely thrilled about it. |
Huge time jump!
 |
| Here's a picture of what will be my bedroom in the new house. I haven't seen it in person yet, but according to my brother, it really is as small as it looks. |
 |
| Closet! |
And one last set of pictures to finish off with the Christmas theme.
 |
| Snowman! |
 |
| Snowman butt! |
I love the snowman and his little fluffy butt! And maybe if you don't try to fit two humongous recliners in the room it'll accommodate your stuff--these people have my grandma's philosophy of fitting furnishings into every square centimeter of space!
ReplyDeleteCute snowman and his bunchy butt.
ReplyDeleteGotta love snowman butts :)
ReplyDeleteThe snowman wasn't supposed to have a big butt crack and bunchy cellulite. That's a seam up the back, and I wasn't very good at sewing up seams when I made him! I'm still not very good at it, to be honest.
ReplyDeleteWell I like him just as he is! If I knew how to make anything that cute, my christmas tree would be redolent with bunchy butts :)
ReplyDeleteI love the snowman butt. One day after grad school you will have to teach me how to knit. :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to teach you how to knit, bonafide! I'm all about sharing the Kool-Aid.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to take a poke through my stash once we are reunited in Indiana. If I have the right stuff I'll try to knit one up for you, Lora! I should warn you though, he's about a foot tall, maybe more, so he's really too big to go on the Christmas tree. (Although, if I made him from sock yarn instead of worsted.... Hmmm.) But he looks really cute on a shelf or mantle or something.
Great pictures, thanks for sharing. And yeah, I like the snowman butt too. But I'm really knocked out about those miniature sweaters! Last year I had Dan crochet a mini lace afghan, out of thread.
